- Authors
Domingo, Javier Á.; Finocchietti, Luigi
- Abstract
This paper provides a critical revision of all the pertinent historical and archaeological data pertaining to the presence of Saint Jerome in Rome, and in particular his activities, his places of residence and his social contacts within the Roman aristocracy. As assistant and secretary to Pope Damasus, Jerome worked in archives, situated on the western reaches of the Field of Mars. This study explores the literary and topographical evidence with regard to the block of San Girolamo della Carità, situated in the Western Campo Marzio, which is currently the site of the eponymous church.
